Simulation: Starting From Strange Creatures Chapter 194

  Chapter 194 Human Lizards

  For the appearance of humans, Zhao Meng was very surprised, he rarely encountered humans in the simulation.

  Human participation is only found in new species that appear only after human intervention.

   Such as the simulated fold-eared cat, but when simulating other animals, it will never encounter such animals as humans.

   "I simulated a lizard this time, is it also a new species cultivated by humans?"

  But Zhao Meng raised his head to observe the surrounding environment, and this place is completely a tropical rainforest environment.

  In the sandpit behind him, there are small lizards breaking out of their shells and constantly crawling outwards. This is a completely natural breeding environment.

"unusual!"

  Looking at the human beings searching for something in front of him, Zhao Meng crawled and hid himself to observe these people

  I saw that the skin of the four people was a kind of tan, and there were not many clothes on their bodies. After a long time of eating and sleeping in the open, their skin felt oily.

   "It seems to be a race from a certain sub-continent in the previous life?"

  These people were looking for something in the grass, drifting away from his hiding place.

  Although the person disappeared, Zhao Meng's vigilance remained undiminished.

   "What kind of intersection this animal will have with humans should become apparent later."

  【In the second week, you lived with your brothers and sisters and avoided many dangers! 】

   Zhao Meng was surprised to find that this kind of monitor lizard lived together when they were young.

  Although lizards have few natural enemies as adults and mostly act alone, as juveniles, there are many natural enemies in nature, and keeping warm in groups is a very good survival strategy.

   "Those humans are still wandering!"

  Zhao Meng saw the four brown people looking for something in the forest again, and this time, Zhao Meng was basically sure of their identities.

   "Poachers!"

  These four humans were carrying shotguns and some hunting tools, apparently entering the forest for poaching,

  He could hear the howling of tigers in the forest from time to time, most likely they came for the tigers.

   "Then what does the four humans who entered the simulation have anything to do with the lizard?"

  Zhao Meng still can't understand. He traveled early and rarely paid attention to news about this in his previous life. He really couldn't think of any interest relationship between lizards and people.

  【In the third week, your body shape has gained further growth through continuous eating. 】

  Zhao Meng found that he had grown up a bit, and he found that this Bengal monitor lizard was different from ordinary lizards.

  Compared to general lizards, such as the chubby lizards that I encountered by chance in other simulations before, with folds and various bumps on the body and even small spikes,

   This lizard has smooth skin and a slender body.

   Such a form was the only one among the lizards he had encountered.

   Facing the appearance of this lizard, a word popped out of Zhao Meng's mind.

  Qingxiu, yes, Qingxiu.

   "It should be because I haven't grown up."

   "When you grow up, you won't be pretty anymore!"

  【In the first month, due to the increase in size, the food in the range of activities became increasingly scarce, and the young monitor lizards began to move to other areas. 】

   "It's time to say goodbye!"

  Looking at the young monitor lizards scattered away, Zhao Meng gently shook his head, chose a direction, and began to migrate.

  Although they are still far away from adults, juvenile monitor lizards eat too much and don't know how to be full in order to grow up. The food crisis has been overwhelmed, and the sense of security brought by hugging for warmth.

   "Hey, these four humans have appeared again!"

   Zhao Meng, who was hiding in the bushes, looked at the four strange humans,

   "It really is a tiger!" The four carried a huge tiger and headed in one direction.

  At this time, one of them seemed to hear something,

  I saw a lizard that had just left the nest, crawling not far from the four of them.

  Seeing the lizard, the four of them all exclaimed and yelled something in a language Zhao Meng couldn't understand.

   Zhao Meng, who was hiding in the bushes, saw this scene, and felt bad,

  Although he didn't know what those people were talking about, it still gave him a bad feeling.

   "This place can't stay anymore!"

  【In the second month, after continuous eating, your body is growing rapidly. 】

"Comfortable"

   Zhao Meng rubbed his body against a branch beside him, and a layer of skin on his body was shed.

  Feeling that he is not restrained and can continue to grow bigger, this comfortable feeling of breaking free from the cage makes him have the urge to scream.

  Unfortunately, he spit out his tongue like a snake, so he couldn't make any sound.

  【Third month, eating, growing, transforming】

   "Big again!"

  At this time, Zhao Meng was lying on a low tree branch, observing the surrounding environment.

  As a Bengal monitor lizard living in the tropical rainforest, although it spends most of its time on the ground, the basic skill of climbing trees is indispensable.

   Especially for juvenile lizards, climbing trees is more important.

  Although the Bengal monitor lizard's tree-climbing ability is not strong, with the blessing of Zhao Meng's human wisdom, it still uses the height provided by the trees to avoid most threats.

  【In the sixth month, your food intake is increasing day by day, you have found a territory with more food and continue to grow】

"boring!"

  After half a year of growth,

  Zhao Meng compared silently,

  I found that my body was almost as long as two chickens from head to tail, and half as tall as a chicken.

  Although it is not as good as those large mammals in the rainforest,

   But apart from mammals, his size is already the king of the forest.

   "It's already this big, but it's not yet an adult?"

  Zhao Meng bit the poisonous snake beside him in two in one bite, and ate it like eating spicy noodles.

  Recalling what happened in the past six months, Zhao Meng became a little bored.

   "Since the simulation until now, I haven't found anything unique about the monitor lizard!"

   "It seems that it may not be easy to obtain strange and unique entries from this giant lizard this time."

  Zhao Meng twisted his body and crawled along the river bank. As his body grew, he finally had the qualifications to be active in the water source.

  【Seventh month, eating, growing, transforming. 】

   "When to reproduce?"

   Zhao Meng muttered, looking at the reflection in the water.

  At this time, his physique was close to that of an adult monitor lizard, but his handsome appearance did not fade away.

  Although some lizard-only folds and scales appeared on his body, these newly-appeared structures have very shallow traces and are closer to human skin.

   "Speaking of which, the crawling movements of this Bengal monitor lizard look a bit enchanting."

  Looking at his crawling body reflected on the water surface, Zhao Meng thought of some kind of dance for some reason.

  【The eighth month, you are approaching adulthood, and your instincts will make you want to move! 】

"finally come!"

  Feeling the changes in his body, Zhao Meng stretched out his tongue to sniff something,

  Through his long and wet tongue, he finally felt some unique breath in the air.

   "It's the smell of women!"

   "In this direction."

  Zhao Meng quickly crawled along the direction where the smell came from. He kept sticking out his tongue, and the smell that attracted him was getting closer and closer.

  But just as he was about to approach his destination, he suddenly stopped.

   "It's those four humans! Why did they appear here!"

  Zhao Meng noticed a few humans hiding in a tree nearby,

   At this time, the monitor lizards under the tree have gathered and started the traditional activity of competing for females.

  For those people on the tree, under the stimulation of hormones, no lizards noticed, they just thought they were monkeys hanging on the tree.

  But after Zhao Meng saw these four people, his vigilance was raised to the highest level.

   Especially seeing that one of them was also pulling a rope that was extending from the tree and into the lower part of the breeding area.

   "It's a trap!"

   "The goal of these people is monitor lizards!"

   Zhao Meng, who has simulated a large number of animals, understands that the breeding season is the season most likely to attract natural enemies and predators.

  But he never imagined that the natural enemies attracted by this breeding season turned out to be humans.

   "This is not right."

   "Man is the natural enemy of all animals!"

   "In the past, when simulating other animals, humans were not introduced, but this time the simulated monitor lizard was introduced into humans, which is very abnormal."

   "There must be other reasons."

   Just when Zhao Meng was puzzled, the person on the tree finally made a movement, and saw the person pulling the rope suddenly jumped down from the tree,

  Under the pull of its own weight, the rope goes around the branch, like a primitive pulley, pulling out the thing at the other end instantly.

   Sure enough, as Zhao Meng expected, it was a trap.

  Some lizards who had just won the victory and were breeding with the female monitor lizard were caught by the huge net that suddenly appeared under the ground, and these lizards were caught by a net.

   "These humans!"

  Although he is a human being, seeing this kind of destructive hunting during the breeding season, Zhao Meng felt disgusted in his heart.

   Zhao Meng, who has simulated many animals, his heart is not as pure as before.

  But this kind of hunting in this breeding season makes the lizards unable to reproduce, and the hunting of households is completely extinct.

   "Looks like we have to change to another place!"

   Zhao Meng watched, those brown people ran under the net bag and cheered, Zhao Meng turned around and was about to leave.

   But at this moment, he suddenly noticed that the four people took out a female lizard from the net bag.

  Zhao Meng originally thought that these people wanted to skin the lizards or kill the lizards so that they could be taken away.

   But what happened next made him unforgettable.

"this…"

   "What are they doing?"

   "How can you do such a thing?"

   "People, lizards... unexpectedly..."

   Zhao Meng didn't understand, but was greatly shocked. At this moment, he finally understood why simulation was introduced into humans,

   "So that's how it is!"

   Zhao Meng backed away silently, he needed to restore his mental state,

  【In the second week of the eighth month, you have fully entered the breeding period, and your instinct drives you to be active. 】

   "It's really a pervert who lingers!"

   Zhao Meng saw the four humans squatting in a breeding area of ​​monitor lizards again, and a trace of malice arose in his heart.

   "Again!"

   Breeding ground lizards were captured again, and the same thing happened again. Looking at the four humans who were torturing his own kind in turn, a thought came to Zhao Meng's mind:

   "It can't go on like this!"

  Zhao Meng turned pressure into motivation, kept eating, and kept getting bigger.

  【The eighth month and three weeks, the breeding season is coming to an end, you still haven't obtained the breeding permission, the accumulated hormones make you excited and irritable. 】

   "Finally! There are no humans in this place."

  Zhao Meng climbed to a hidden river bend area, where there are also some lizards exuding their own smell.

  Zhao Meng carefully observed the surrounding environment, and saw that there were indeed no human traces.

   Zhao Meng hurried in. There are already some male monitor lizards fighting here,

   Zhao Meng, who had endured for a long time, was very brave when fighting these male monitor lizards.

  He quickly used his wisdom and force to defeat his competitors, and came to the unique source of the smell, which was a female lizard a circle smaller than him.

"very good!"

  Looking at the female lizard obediently staying there, just when Zhao Meng was about to do something,

   Suddenly there was a slight rustling sound in the distant forest, as if something was approaching here.

   Immediately afterwards, Zhao Meng heard a chattering sound,

  Although he couldn't understand what this language was, he was extremely familiar with it.

   "It's those humans!"

"Oops!"

   Zhao Meng immediately woke up and wanted to escape.

  But the next moment, with a bang, a large net flew over from a distance, covering him and other lizards in the net.

   Facing the huge net on his body, he didn't panic, and moved slowly, trying to escape:

   "Strange, I've already checked that there are no humans nearby, so why am I still ambushed!"

   "What went wrong?"

  At this time, four figures came from a distance, looking at the things in their hands, Zhao Meng suddenly understood:

   "So that's it, it's the same kind that exposed this position!"

   "It's my bad luck."

  The thing in the hands of those people was the male monitor lizard he had just defeated.

  The monitor lizard had been killed at this time, and Zhao Meng speculated that the monitor lizard happened to meet these poachers during its escape.

  As an experienced poacher, if he cannot judge the behavioral logic of the prey through the traces of their activities, it is a kind of dereliction of duty.

  Therefore, these poachers most likely found this place by following the path of this male.

   "Unexpectedly, such a hidden breeding ground has been discovered."

  At this time, among those few people, one of them ran over and quickly tightened the cast net, but Zhao Meng still couldn't crawl out in the end.

  Looking at the female lizard pulled out from the net bag, although Zhao Meng did not do anything yet,

  Thinking of what will happen to his spoils next, at this moment, Zhao Meng finally realized the pain of those sufferers in reality.

   "Forget it, this is just a simulation."

   Zhao Meng muttered, and then a sharp knife pierced his body, and he felt that something was taken away from his body.

  Seeing the person who killed him, holding the things taken from his body, and dancing there happily, Zhao Meng slowly lost his consciousness,

   "As long as these humans exist, they will cause a lot of interference to the simulation!"

   "The next simulation, we have to find a way to get rid of them."

   "Even if it can't be killed, these strange people must have an internal logic in their behavior, and we must find this logic."

   "It's a pity that the breeding is not completed this time, and I can't see the entry."

  With regret, Zhao Meng ended the simulation.
